CATION, AND PHOSPHATE CONTENT OF-MUSCLE* WITH A NOTE ON THE CARBON DIOXIDE CONTENT OF HUMAN MUSCLE BY LYTT I. GARDNER,:~ ELSIE A. MAcLACHLAN, AND HELEN BERMAN

چکیده
I t has previously been demonstrated that dietary potassium deficiency in animals is associated with low serum chloride and elevated serum bicarbonate concentration (1-5). In 1950 the present authors described a decrease of intracellular carbon dioxide in the skeletal muscle of potassium-deficient rats (6), an observation which has since been confirmed by others (7). The present communication provides data concerning the relationships existing between the concentrations of carbon dioxide, chloride, phosphate, sodium, potassium, calcium, and magnesium in the skeletal muscle of normal and potassium-deficient rats. In addition the concentration of carbon dioxide in normal human skeletal muscle has been determined.

Effect of Potassium Deficiency on Carbon Dioxide, Cation, and Phosphate Content of Muscle
Albino rats weighing 160 to 175 gm. were fed a complete synthetic diet containing 0.003 per cent potassium and 0.7 per cent sodium for 40 days. Controls were given the same diet plus adequate added potassium. 1. Data from analyses of serum and skeletal muscle showed (a) a fall in serum chloride concentration and an increase in serum carbon dioxide concentration and pH in the potassium-deficient...
متن کاملGains from diversification on convex combinations: A majorization and stochastic dominance approach
By incorporating both majorization theory and stochastic dominance theory, this paper presents a general theory and a unifying framework for determining the diversification preferences of risk-averse investors and conditions under which they would unanimously judge a particular asset to be superior. In particular, we develop a theory for comparing the preferences of different convex combination...
متن کاملImproved immunogenicity of tetanus toxoid by Brucella abortus S19 LPS adjuvant.
BACKGROUND Adjuvants are used to increase the immunogenicity of new generation vaccines, especially those based on recombinant proteins. Despite immunostimulatory properties, the use of bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) as an adjuvant has been hampered due to its toxicity and pyrogenicity. Brucella abortus LPS is less toxic and has no pyrogenic properties compared to LPS from other gram negati...
متن کاملSteady electrodiffusion in hydrogel-colloid composites: macroscale properties from microscale electrokinetics.
A rigorous microscale electrokinetic model for hydrogel-colloid composites is adopted to compute macroscale profiles of electrolyte concentration, electrostatic potential, and hydrostatic pressure across membranes that separate electrolytes with different concentrations. The membranes are uncharged polymeric hydrogels in which charged spherical colloidal particles are immobilized and randomly d...
متن کاملPerturbative Analysis of Dynamical Localisation
In this paper we extend previous results on convergent perturbative solutions of the Schrödinger equation of a class of periodically timedependent two-level systems. The situation treated here is particularly suited for the investigation of two-level systems exhibiting the phenomenon of (approximate) dynamical localisation. We also present a convergent perturbative expansion for the secular fre...
